Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This scenario focuses on how Bob is treated and the respect given to him during the discussion with his manager. It reflects the concept of interactional justice, which refers to how people are treated during interpersonal interactions within an organization. Mia's behavior towards Bob reflects a concern for his sense of dignity and respect, and her willingness to listen to his side of the story. It is not an example of restorative justice because there is no goal of repairing harm. It is not distributive justice because it doesn't involve how resources or opportunities are distributed. It is not impassive justice because it implies that Mia takes an active role in addressing the situation. Finally, it is not retributive justice because it doesn't involve punishing Bob for his behavior.
